Bug Description

In nvidia-31-updates.postinst script:

        if ! id "$NVPD_USER" > /dev/null 2>&1; then
            # Create the user and group for nvidia-persistenced
            adduser --system --no-create-home --home '/' \
            --shell '/sbin/nologin' \
            --gecos 'NVIDIA Persistence Daemon' \
            --group "$NVPD_USER"
        fi

/sbin/nologin doesn't exist in Ubuntu, it should be /usr/sbin/nologin

This probably needs fixing in all the other zillion nvidia driver packages also.
